very satisfied

Very nice coins

brted on 4/17/16

Despite the higher premiums this year, I wanted to get a couple of these to go along with previous years' horses and goats. The coins I got looked great, with no flaws and a great shine. I couldn't see any scuffs or milk spots. I'm very happy with the purchase and they should increase in value over time given the limited mintage.

bad quality

yr of the monkey

Julie on 11/14/15

Some what disappointed ,after the horse and yr of the sheep which were stunning.this 2016 yr of the monkey has milk spots and along the right side edge a scuffmark from top to bottom. Purchased six all have marks or spots..not happy with this one in the series.

Poor Quality

The British Royal Mint better get their quality under control. Especially with only 138,888 being minted. My 2016 Year of the Monkey arrived with a sizable scuff ring along the outer right edge to bottom of the coin. Unacceptable.

Buy 2016 Lunar Year of the Monkey 1 oz Silver Coins from Provident Metals. Celebrating the Chinese zodiac, the British Royal Mint has released its third design in its Shengxiào Collection. Each coin was struck with one troy ounce of .999 fine silver and is eligible for placement into precious metal IRAs. Only 138,888 Year of the Monkey Silver Coins were minted worldwide.

The reverse pays tribute to the monkey, the ninth animal in the zodiac. The design by Wuon-Gean Ho, a British-Chinese artist, depicts a monkey leaping from a tree with its arms outspread. Another monkey can be seen swinging in the distance amid the leaves hanging from the long, slim tree. “YEAR OF THE MONKEY,” “1 OZ FINE SILVER 999” and “2016” are inscribed. A Chinese symbol for “monkey” is stamped beneath the primate.

People born in 1920 and every 12th year after are thought to be optimistic, intelligent, quick-witted and fearless. Individuals that are born during the year of the monkey do well in banking, science, film, and engineering careers.

A profile of Queen Elizabeth II graces the obverse of this round. The elegant, right-facing portrait is the fifth image of Her Majesty to be displayed on circulating coinage. Inscriptions read “2 POUNDS, “ELIZABETH II” and “D.G. REG. F.D.”

The 2016 1 oz Silver Monkey follows the two previous releases in the Royal Mint’s collection: the 2014 Lunar Year of the Horse and the 2015 Lunar Year of the Sheep. Each design in the series is legal tender and guaranteed .999 pure, as the Royal Mint is ISO9001 accredited – in fact, the Sovereign Mint was the world’s first to be certified ISO 9001 in 1991.

Lunar Silver Monkeys are an ideal addition to any Silver Bullion holdings, whether you’re an investor or collector. These remarkable coins are the latest Royal Mint pieces available at Provident Metals.

Individual coins will ship in plastic flips. Orders of 25 will be shipped in original Royal Mint tubes and quantities of 500 will be strapped and shipped in mint monster boxes. All coins will be shipped as they were received from the British Royal Mint.

Celebrate the Lunar calendar and the traditions that have been built for generations with this 2016 Lunar Year of the Monkey 1 oz Silver Coin. Order yours today from Provident Metals using our safe and convenient online purchasing system, or by calling 800-313-3315.
